SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND PRODUCTION METHOD
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] This application claims the benefit of Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-136470 filed June 15, 2010, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein,
FIELD
[0002] This application relates generally to a semiconductor device and a method of producing such.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Semiconductor devices, particularly integrated circuits using MOS transistors, are increasingly being highly integrated. MOS transistors in integrated circuits have been downsized to nano sizes as the integration level is increased. As MOS transistors are downsized, problems arise such as difticulty in leaking current control. For that reason, further downsizing is difficult.
In order to resolve these problems, a surrounding gate transistor (SGT) structure has been proposed in which the source, gate and drain are provided on a substrate in the vertical direction and the gate surrounds an istand-shaped semiconductor fayer.
[0004] In order to reduce power consumption in SGTs, it is preferable for resistance to be reduced in the source, gate and drain. In particular, in reducing the resistance of the gate electrode, it is desirable to use metal in the gate electrode. However, contamination of manufacturing equipment by metal and contamination of semiconductor devices produced by that manufacturing equipment is not desirable. Accordingly, processes subsequent to the forming of the metal gate electrode need to be special processes such as those that constantly control such metal contamination.
[0005] Patent Literature 1 discloses a method for producing an SGT satisfying to a certain extent the various conditions stated above. [Background Art] [Patent Literature)
[60006] [Patent Literature 1] International Laid-Open Patent Publication 2009/1 10049
[Summary of the Invention]
[0067] However, in Patent Literature 1 the protection of semiconductor manufacturing equipment and semiconductor devices from metal contamination is imperfect. For example, in
Patent Literature | the gate electrode is formed by planarizing the gate metal using CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) and then etching this material. At this time, the gate metal is not covered by other materials and is exposed. In addition, the gate metal is similarly exposed during the process of wet etching the nitride film hard mask and nitride film sidewall.
Consequently, there is a concern that the CMP device, the gate etching device and the nitride film wet etching device could be contaminated by metal in the course of producing the SGT.
Hence, there is a possibility that a semiconductor device produced through such a metal device could be contaminated by metal.
[0008] In addition, when forming a metal-semiconductor compound through etching in
Patent Literature I, the gate metal is exposed. Consequently, per Patent Literature 1, the gate metal needs to be tantalum or some other material that is not etched by the chemicals used when forming the metal-semiconductor compound. {0009] in addition, another problem is that similar to MOS transistors, as SGTs are downsized parasitic capacitance occurs in the multi-layered wiring and through this the operating speed of the SGT declines.
[6010] In consideration of the foregoing, it is an objective of the present invention to provide a semiconductor device having a structure that controls metal contamination of semiconductor manufacturing equipment and semiconductor devices in semiconductor manufacturing processes while having good characteristics, and a method of producing such a device.

a first columnar semiconductor layer formed on the first planar semiconductor layer and a hard mask formed on the top surface of the first columnar semiconductor; a first high concentration semiconductor layer formed on the lower region of the first columnar semiconductor layer and on the region of the first planar semiconductor layer below the first columnar semiconductor layer; and a first insulating film formed on the first planar semiconductor layer; a process for forming a seventh insulating film, a third metal film and a third semiconductor film, in that order, on the first structure; a process for etching the third semiconductor film and leaving a sidewall shape on the sidewall on the first columnar semiconductor layer; a process for etching the third metal film and leaving a sidewall shape on the sidewall of the first columnar semiconductor layer; a seventh insulating film etching process for etching the seventh insulating film and leaving a sidewall shape on the sidewall of the first columnar semiconductor layer; and a fourth semiconductor film formation process for forming a fourth semiconductor film on the result of the seventh insulating film etching process.
Through this, the first gate insulating film and the first metal film are covered by the first columnar semiconductor layer, the first semiconductor film, the first insulating film and the hard mask. When a high-k film is used for the first gate insulating film, the high-k film is a source of metal contamination, so it is possible to control metal contamination by the first gate insulating film and the first metal film, which are sources of contamination, being covered by the first columnar semiconductor layer, the fourth semiconductor film, the first insulating film and the hard mask.

Through this, it is possible to control metal contamination of the CMP device used in the planarization process because metal is not exposed during the process of planarizing the fourth semiconductor film and the third semiconductor film, it is possible to determine the gate length of the SGT through etching of the semiconductor film, and it is possible to control fluctuations in gate length, that is to say variances in gate length, and damage to the first gate insulating film and the first metal film from the gate electrode top surface because the gate electrode top surface is protected by the deposited first oxide film from wet processes and dry processes performed in later procedures.
In addition, the first gate insulating film and the first metal film are formed only around the first columnar silicon layer and the first metal film is covered by polysilicon, so it is possible to reduce metal contamination of the gate etching device by etching the polysilicon during gate etching.
In addition, the first gate insulating film and the first metal {film are formed only around the columnar semiconductor layer and the first metal film is covered by the first columnar semiconductor layer and the third and fourth semiconductor films, so it is possible to reduce metal contamination of the nitride film wet etching device when wet etching the nitride film hard mask and the nitride film sidewall.

Through this, it is possible to cover the first gate insulating film and the first metal film with the first columnar semiconductor layer, the first semiconductor layer, the first insulating film and the second insulating film.
[0041] In addition, the method of producing a semiconductor device according to the present invention includes: a process for preparing a third structure having: a first planar semiconductor layer; a first columnar semiconductor layer formed on the first planar semiconductor layer; a first high concentration semiconductor layer formed on the lower region of the first columnar semiconductor layer and on the region of the first planar semiconductor layer below the first columnar semiconductor layer; a second high concentration semiconductor ayer of the same conductive type as the first high concentration semiconductor layer, formed on the upper region of the first columnar semiconductor layer; a first gate insulating film formed on the sidewall of the first columnar semiconductor layer between the first high concentration semiconductor layer and the second high concentration semiconductor layer, so as to surround the first columnar semiconductor layer; a first metal film formed on the first gate insulating film so as to surround the first gate insulating film; a first semiconductor film formed on the first metal film so as to surround the first metal film; a first gate electrode composed of the first metal film and the first semiconductor film; and a first insulating film formed between the first gate electrode and the first planar semiconductor layer; a process for forming an eighth insulating film on the third structure: and a process for forming a second insulating film by etching the eighth insulating film in a sidewall shape so the eighth insulating film remains on the top surface of the first gate electrode and the upper sidewall of the first columnar semiconductor layer.
Through this, it is possible for the second high concentration silicon layer and the first gate electrode to be separated from the first gate insulating film, to have an overlap and to minimize that overlap.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0044] The embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to
FIGS. TA to 88D.
[0045] (Embodiment 1)
FIG. TC shows an SGT 220 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
[60406] This SGT 220 is an nMOS SGT and is provided with a first planar silicon layer 234 and a first columnar silicon layer 232 formed on top of the first planar silicon layer 234, 0047] A first nt type silicon layer 113 is formed on the lower region of the first columnar silicon layer 232 and the region of the first planar silicon layer 234 positioned below the first columnar silicon tayer 232, and a second n+ type silicon layer 157 is formed on the upper region of the first columnar silicon layer 232. In this embodiment, the first n+ type silicon layer 113, for example, functions as a source scattering layer and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 functions as a drain scattering layer. In addition, the area between the source scattering layer and the drawing scattering layer functions as a channel region. The first columnar silicon layer 232 between the first n+ type silicon layer 113 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 functioning as this channel region is called a first silicon layer 114.
[0048] A gate insulating film 140 is formed surrounding the first columnar silicon layer 232 functioning as the channel region. The gate insulating film 140 may be, for example, an oxide film, a nitride film or a high-k film. Furthermore, a first metal film 138 is formed surrounding this gate insulating film 140. The first metal {ilm 138 may be, for example, titanium, titanium nitride, tantalum or tantalum nitride. First polysilicon films 136 and 152 are formed surrounding this first metal film 138. The first metal film 138 and the first polysilicon films 136 and 152 constitute a first gate electrode 236. Thus, by using metal as the gate electrode, it is possibie to control depletion of the channel region while also lowering the resistance of the gate electrode.
In the present embodiment, a channel is formed in the first silicon layer 114 by impressing a voltage on the first gate electrode 236 during operation,
[6049] In addition, a first metal-silicon compound 172, a third metal-silicon compound 170 and a second metal-silicon compound 171 are formed on the first n+ type silicon layer 113, the gate electrode 236 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157, respectively. As the metal comprising the metal-silicon compounds, Ni or Co may be used, for example. Through these metal-silicon compounds, the first n+ type silicon layer 113, the gate electrode 236 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 are connected to below-described contacts. Through this, the resistances of the gate, source and drain are lowered. 10050] The first n+ type silicon layer 113 is connected to a contact 230 via the first metal- silicon compound 172. The contact 230 is formed from a barrier metal layer 189 and metal layers 194 and 199. The contact 230 is further connected to a power source wire 225. The power source wire 225 is composed of a barrier metal layer 216, a metal layer 217 and a barrier metal layer 218.
[0051] The second n+ type silicon layer 157 is connected to a contact 229 via the second metal-silicon compound 171. The contact 229 is composed of a barrier metal layer 188 and metal layers 193 and 198. The contact 229 is further connected to an output wire 223. The output wire 223 is composed of a barrier metal layer 213, a metal 214 and a barrier metal layer 215.
[0052] Furthermore, a first insulating film 129 is formed between the first gate electrode 236 and the first planar silicon layer 234, a second insulating film 162 is formed in a sidewall shape on the upper sidewall of the first columnar silicon fayer 232 and above the first gate electrode 236, and a third insulating {ilm 164 is formed in a sidewall shape on the sidewall of the first gate electrode 236 and the first insulating film 129. The first insulating film 129 is preferably a fow-k insulating film such as SOF, SiOH or the like, for example. The second insulating film 162 and the third insulating film 164 arc oxide films, nitride films or high-k films, for example.
The parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the planar silicon layer is reduced by the first insulating film 129. 10053] With the above composition, downsizing and lowering of resistance in the semiconductor device are realized in the nMOS SGT according to the present embodiment, and in addition parasitic capacitance between multi-layer wiring is reduced. Through this, it is possible to avoid lowering of operation speeds accompanying downsizing of the SGT.
[0054] In the nMOS SGT according to this embodiment, the thickness of the second insulating film 162 is preferably thicker than the sum of the thickness of the first gate insulating film 140 and the thickness of the first metal film 138. In this case, the first gate insulating film 140 and the first metal film 138 are covered by the first columnar silicon layer 232, the first polysilicon films 136 and 152, the first insulating film 129 and the second insulating film 162.
By using the above-described composition, the entirety of the first metal film 138 is protected, so this film is not etched by a sulfuric acid hydrogen peroxide mixture or an ammonia hydrogen peroxide mixture when forming the metal-silicon compound.
[6055] [n addition, the length from the center of the first columnar silicon layer 232 to the end of the first planar silicon layer 234 in the nMOS SGT according to the present embodiment is preferably larger than the sum of the length from the center to the sidewall of the first columnar silicon layer 232, the thickness of the first gate insulating film 140, the thickness of the first gate electrode 236 formed by the first metal film 138 and the first polysilicon films 136 and 152 and the thickness of the third insulating film 164.
When the above-described composition is used, it is possible to form the first metal-
silicon compound 172 on the first n+ type silicon layer 113 without the special addition of manufacturing processes.
[0056] (Embodiment 2)
In the first embodiment, an example was shown of a single columnar semiconductor layer, but in the second embodiment, an example is shown of a circuit composed of multiple columnar semiconductor layers.
An inverter according to the second embodiment is provided with a pMOS SGT and an nMOS SGT.
[0057] The nMOS SGT 220 is provided with a first planar silicon layer 234 and a first columnar silicon layer 232 formed on top of the first planar silicon layer 234.
[0058] A first n+ type silicon layer 113 is formed on the lower region of the first columnar silicon layer 232 and the region of the first planar silicon layer 234 positioned below the first columnar silicon layer 232, and a second n+ type silicon layer 157 is formed on the upper region of the first columnar silicon layer 232. In this embodiment, the first n+ type silicon layer 113, for example, functions as a source scattering layer and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 functions as a drain scattering layer. In addition, the area between the source scattering layer and the drawing scattering layer functions as a channel region. The first columnar silicon layer 232 between the first n+ type silicon layer 113 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 functioning as this channel region is called a first silicon layer 114.
[0659] A first gate insulating film 140 is formed surrounding the first columnar silicon layer 232 functioning as the channel region. The gate insulating film 140 may be, for example, an oxide film, a nitride film or a high-k film. Furthermore, a first metal film 138 is formed surrounding this first gate insulating film 140. The first metal film 138 may be, for example, titanium, titanium nitride, tantalum or tantalum nitride. First polysilicon films 136 and 152 are formed surrounding this first metal film 138. The first metal film 138 and the first polysilicon films 136 and 152 constitute a first gate electrode 236. Thus, by using metal as the gate electrode, it is possible to control depletion of the channel region while also lowering the resistance of the gate electrode.
In the present embodiment, a channel is formed in the first silicon layer 114 by impressing a voltage on the first gate electrode 236 during operation.
[0060] In addition, a first metal-silicon compound 172, a third metal-silicon compound 170 and a second metal-silicon compound 171 are formed on the first n+ type silicon layer 113, the first gate electrode 236 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157, respectively. The metal comprising the metal-silicon compounds may be Ni or Co, for example. Through these metal- silicon compounds, the first n+ type silicon layer 113, the gate electrode 236 and the second n+ type silicon layer 157 are connected to below-described contacts. Through this, the resistances of the gate, source and drain are lowered.
[0061] Furthermore, a first insulating film 129 is formed between the first gate electrode 236 and the first planar silicon layer 234, a second insulating film 162 is formed in a sidewall shape on the upper sidewall of the first columnar silicon layer 232 and above the first gate electrode 236, and a third insulating film 164 is formed in a sidewall shape on the sidewall of the first gate electrode 236 and the first insulating film 129. The first insulating film 129 is preferably a low-k insulating film such as SiOF, SiOH or the like, for example. The second insulating film 162 and the third insulating film 164 are oxide films, nitride films or high-k films, for example.
The parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the planar silicon layer is reduced by the first insulating film 129,
[0062] The pMOS SGT 219 and is provided with a second planar silicon fayer 233 and a second columnar silicon layer 231 formed on top of the second planar silicon {ayer 233.
[0063] A first p+ type silicon layer 119 is formed on the lower region of the second columnar silicon layer 231 and the region of the second planar silicon layer 233 positioned below the second columnar silicon layer 231, and a second p+ type silicon layer 159 is formed on the upper region of the second columnar silicon layer 231. In this embodiment, the first p+ type silicon layer 119, for example, functions as a source scattering layer and the second p+ type silicon layer 159 functions as a drain scattering layer. In addition, the area between the source scattering layer and the drawing scattering layer functions as a channel region. The second columnar silicon fayer 231 between the first pt type silicon layer 119 and the second p+ type silicon layer 159 functioning as this channel region is called a second silicon layer 120.
[0064] A second gate insulating film 139 is formed surrounding the second columnar silicon layer 231 functioning as the channel region. The second gate insulating film 139 may be, for example, an oxide film, a nitride film or a high-k film. Furthermore, a second metal film 137 is formed surrounding this second gate insulating film 139. The second metal film 137 may be, for example, titanium, titanium nitride, tantalum or tantalum nitride. Second polysilicon films 138 and 151 are formed surrounding this second metal film 137. The second metal film 137 and the second polysilicon films 135 and 151 constitute a second gate electrode 235. Thus, by using metal as the gate electrode, it is possible to control depletion of the channel region while also lowering the resistance of the gate electrode.
In the present embodiment, a channel is formed in the second silicon layer 120 by impressing a voltage on the second gate electrode 235 during operation.
[0065] In addition, a fourth metal-silicon compound 168, a fifth metal-silicon compound 170 and a sixth metal-silicon compound 169 are respectively formed on the first p+ type silicon layer 119, the second gate electrode 235 and the second p+ type silicon layer 159.

Through these metal-silicon compounds, the first p+ type silicon layer 119, the second gate electrode 235 and the second p+ type silicon layer 159 are connected to below-described contacts. Through this, the resistances of the gate, source and drain are lowered.
[0066] Furthermore, a fourth insulating film 129 is formed between the second gate clectrode 235 and the second planar silicon layer 233, a filth insulating film 161 is formed in a sidewall shape on the upper sidewall of the second columnar silicon layer 231 and above the second gate electrode 235, and a sixth insulating film 164 is formed in a sidewall shape on the sidewall of the second gate electrode 235 and the fourth insulating film 129.

The parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the planar silicon layer is reduced by the fourth insulating film 129. 10067] The first n+ type silicon layer 113 is connected to a contact 230 via the first metal- silicon compound 172. The contact 230 is formed from a barrier metal layer 189 and metal layers 194 and 199. The contact 230 is further connected 10 a power source wire 225. The power source wire 225 is composed of a barrier metal layer 216, a metal layer 217 and a barrier metal layer 218.

The input wire 224 is composed of a barrier metal layer 213, a metal layer 214 and a barrier metal layer 215.
[0070] ‘The first p+ type silicon layer 119 is connected to a contact 226 via the fourth metal- silicon compound 168. The contact 226 is formed from a barrier metal layer 185 and metal layers 190 and 195. The contact 226 is further connected Lo a power source wire 222. The power source wire 222 is composed of a barrier metal layer 207, a metal layer 208 and a barrier metal layer 209,
[0071] The second p+ type silicon layer 159 is connected to a contact 227 via the sixth metal-silicon compound 169. The contact 227 is composed of a barrier metal layer 186 and metal layers 191 and 196. The contact 227 is further connected to an output wire 223. The output wire 223 is composed of a barrier metal layer 213, a metal layer 214 and a barrier metal layer 215.
[0072] Through the above, an inverter circuit is composed from the pMOS SGT 219 and the nMOS SGT 220.
[0073] Through this composition, lower resistance and downsizing of the semiconductor device are realized in the inverter circuit according to the present embodiment, and in addition, the parasitic capacitance between interlayer wires is reduced. Through this, it is possible to avoid slowing of operating speeds accompanying SGT downsizing.
[0074] [n this embodiment, the first gate insulating film 140 and the first metal film 138 are preferably materials that make the nMOS SGT 220 enhancement-type, and the second gate insulating film 139 and the second metal film 137 are preferably materials that make the pMOS
SGT 219 enhancement-type. The penetrating current that flows during operation of this inverter composed of the nMOS SGT 220 and the pMOS SGT 219 can thus be reduced.
[0075] In addition, in the nMOS SGT according to this embodiment, the thickness of the second insulating film 162 is preferably thicker than the sum of the thickness of the first gate insulating film 140 and the thickness of the first metal film 138. In this case, the first gate insulating film 140 and the first metal film 138 are covered by the first columnar silicon layer 232, the first polysilicon films 136 and 152, the first insulating film 129 and the second insulating film 162.
When the above-described composition is employed, the first metal film 138 is protected in its entirety and thus is not etched by a sulfuric acid hydrogen peroxide mixture or an ammonia hydrogen peroxide mixture when the metal-semiconductor compound is formed.
[0076] In addition, in the pMOS SGT according to this embodiment, the thickness of the second insulating film 161 is preferably thicker than the sum of the thickness of the second gate insulating film 139 and the thickness of the second metal film 137.

When the above-described composition is employed, the second metal film 137 is protected in its entirety and thus is not etched by a sulfuric acid hydrogen peroxide mixture or an ammonia hydrogen peroxide mixture when the metal-semiconductor compound is formed. 10077] In addition, in the nMOS SGT according to this embodiment, the length from the center of the first columnar silicon layer 232 to the end of the first planar silicon layer 234 is preferably larger than the sum of the length from the center to the sidewall of the first columnar silicon layer 232, the thickness of the first gate insulating film 140, the thickness of the first gate electrode 236 and the thickness of the third insulating film 164.
When the above-described composition is employed, the first metal-silicon compound 172 can be formed on the n+ type silicon layer 113 without adding any special manufacturing processes.
[0678] In addition, in the pMOS SGT according to this embodiment, the length from the center of the second columnar silicon layer 231 to the end of the second planar silicon layer 233 is preferably larger than the sum of the length from the center to the sidewall of the second columnar silicon layer 231, the thickness of the second gate insulating film 139, the thickness of the first gate electrode 235 and the thickness of the sixth insulating {ilm 164.
When the above-described composition is employed, the fourth metal-silicon compound 168 can be formed on the p+ type silicon layer 119 without adding any special manufacturing processes.
[0079] Next, one example of the manufacturing method for forming an inverter provided with SGTs according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2A through 88D. In these drawings, the same constituent elements are labeled with the same reference numbers.
FIGS. 2A through 88D show an example of producing an SGT according to the present invention. In each drawing, part A shows a planar view, part B shows a cross-sectional view along line X-X', part C shows a cross-sectional view along line Y1-Y1" and part D shows a cross-sectional view along line Y2-Y2'
[0080] First, as shown in FIGS. 2A to 2D, a nitride film 103 is formed on a substrate composed of a silicon oxide film 101 and a silicon layer 102. Here, the substrate may also be composed of silicon. In addition, an oxide film may be formed on the silicon layer and another silicon layer may be formed on the oxide film. In the present embodiment, an i-type silicon layer is used as the silicon layer 102. When a p-type silicon layer and an n-type silicon layer are used in place of the i-type silicon layer, dopants are introduced into the part that becomes the channel of the SGT. In addition, a thin n-type silicon layer or a thin p-type silicon layer may be used in place of the i-type silicon layer.
[0081] Next, resists 104 and 105 for forming a hard mask for a columnar silicon layer are formed on the nitride film 103, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3D.
[0082] Next, the nitride film 103 is etched and hard masks 106 and 107 are formed, as shown in FIGS. 4A to 4D.
[0083] Next, the silicon [ayer 102 is etched and columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 are formed, as shown in FIGS. 5A to 5D.
[0084] Next, the resists 104 and 105 are removed. Conditions on the substrate following removal are shown in FIGS. 6A to 6D.
[0085] The surface of the silicon layer 102 is oxidized and a sacrificial oxide film 108 is formed, as shown in FIGS. 7A to 7D. By making this sacrificial oxide film, the surface of the silicon, such as carbon thrown in during silicon etching, is removed.
[0086] The sacrificial oxide film 108 is removed through etching to form the shape shown in
FIGS. 8A to 8D.
[0087] An oxide film 109 is formed on the surface of the silicon layer 102 and the hard masks 106 and 107, as shown in FIGS. 9A to 9D.
[0088] The oxide film 109 is etched and left in sidewall shape on the sidewall of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 to form sidewalls 110 and 111, as shown in FIGS. 10A to 10D. When forming an n+ type silicon layer by injecting dopants surrounding the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231, these sidewalls 110 and 111 prevent dopants from entering the channel, making it possible to control fluctuations in the threshold voltage of the SGT.
[0089] A resist 112 for injecting dopants into the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 232 is formed surrounding the columnar silicon layer 231, as shown in FIGS. 11A to 11D.
[6090] As indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 128 and 12C, arsenic, for example, is injected into the silicon layer 102 in the region where the nMOS SGT is to be formed, thereby forming an n+ type sificon layer 113 surrounding the bottom of the columnar silicon [ayer 232. At this time, the part of the silicon layer 102 covered by the hard mask 107 and the sidewall 111 does not become the n+ type silicon layer, comprising instead a first silicon layer 114 region in the columnar silicon layer 232.
[6091] The resist 112 is removed. Conditions on the substrate following removal are shown in FIGS. 13A to 13D.
[0092] The sidewalls 110 and 111 are removed through etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 14A to 14D.
[0093] Annealing is accomplished and the injected dopants, here arsenic, are activated.
Through this, the injected dopants are scattered to the bottom of the cofumnar silicon layer 232, as shown in FIGS. [5A to 15D. Through this, even the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231 becomes an nt type silicon layer and forms a portion of the n+ type silicon layer 113.
[0094] An oxide film 115 is formed on the silicon layer 102, the hard masks 106 and 107 and the n+ type silicon layer 113, as shown in FIGS. 16A to 16D,
[0095] The oxide film 115 is etched, leaving behind a sidewall shape in the sidewall of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 to form sidewalls 116 and 117, as shown in FIGS. [7A to 17D. When forming a p+ type silicon layer by injecting dopants surrounding the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231, these sidewalls prevent dopants from entering the channel, making it possible to control fluctuations in the threshold voltage of the SGT.
[0096] A resist 118 is formed surrounding the columnar silicon layer 231 in order to inject dopants into the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 232, as shown in FIGS. 18A to 18D.
[0097] As indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 19B and 19D, boron, for example, is injected into the silicon layer 102 in the region where the pMOS SGT is to be formed, thereby forming a pt type silicon layer 119 surrounding the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231. Aft this time, the part of the silicon layer 102 covered by the hard mask 106 and the sidewall 116 does not become the p+ type silicon layer, comprising instead a second silicon layer 120 region in the columnar silicon layer 231.
[0098] The resist 118 is removed. Conditions on the substrate following removal are shown in FIGS. 20A to 20D.
[0899] The sidewalls 116 and 117 are removed through etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 21A to 21D.
[0100] Annealing ts accomplished and the injected dopant, here boron, is activated.
Through this, the injected dopant is scattered to the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231, as shown in FIGS. 22A to 22D. Through this, even the bottom of the columnar silicon layer 231 becomes a p+ type silicon layer and forms a portion of the p+ type silicon layer 119.
[0101] An oxide film 121 is formed on the surface of the hard masks 106 and 107, the n+ type silicon layer 113 and the p+ type silicon layer 119, as shown in FIGS 23A to 23D. This oxide film 121 protects the first silicon layer 114 and the second silicon layer 120 from resist for forming a planar silicon layer later.
[01062] Resists 122 and 123 for forming a planar silicon fayer are formed. The resists 122 and 123 are formed so as to cover the second silicon layer 120 and the area surrounding the bottom thereof, and the first silicon layer 114 and the area surrounding the bottom thereof, respectively, as shown in FIGS. 24A to 24D.
[0103] The oxide film 121 is etched and partitioned into oxide films 124 and 125, as shown in FIGS. 25A to 25D.
[0104] Portions of the p+ type silicon layer 119 and of the n+ type silicon layer 113 are etched to form planar silicon layers 233 and 234, as shown in FIGS. 26A and 26D. The planar silicon layer 233 is the planar portion of the p+ type silicon layer 119 arranged surrounding the area immediately below the second silicon layer 120. In addition, the planar silicon layer 234 is the planar portion of the n+ type silicon layer 113 arranged surrounding the area immediately below the first silicon layer 114.
[6105] The resists 122 and 123 arc removed. Conditions on the substrate following removal are shown in FIGS. 27A to 27D.
[0106] An oxide film 123 is formed on the surface of the resists 122 and 123 and the planar silicon layers 233 and 244, as shown in FIGS. 28A to 28D.
[3107] CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) is accomplished, the oxide film 126 is planarized and the hard masks 106 and 107 are exposed, as shown in FIGS. 29A to 29D.
[0108] The oxide films 126, 124 and 125 are etched to form an oxide film 126 buried between the planar silicon layers 119 and 133, as shown in FIGS. 30A to 30D.
[0109] An oxide film 128 is formed on the result of the above processes. At this time, the oxide film 128 is formed thickly on the n+ type silicon layer 113, the p+ type silicon layer 119, the oxide film 126 and the hard masks 106 and 107, and the oxide film 128 is formed thinly on the sidewalls of the columnar silicon fayers 231and 232, as shown in FIGS. 31A to 31D,
[0110] The oxide film 128 formed on the sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 is removed through etching. The etching is preferably isotropic etching. The oxide film 128 is formed thickly on the n+ type silicon layer 113, the p+ type silicon layer 119, the oxide film 126 and the hard masks 106 and 107 and the oxide film 128 is formed thinly on the sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 213 and 232, and consequently, the oxide film 128 remains on the n+ type silicon layer 113, the p+ type silicon layer 119 and the oxide film 126, forming an insulating film 129, as shown in FIGS. 32A to 32D. In addition, in this case oxide films 130 and 131 remain on the hard masks 106 and 107 as well.
By means of the insulating film 129, it is possible to reduce the parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the planar silicon layer.
[0111] A gate insulating film 132 is formed so as to cover at least the first silicon layer 114 and the surface of the surroundings of the bottom thereof and the second silicon layer 120 and the surface of the surroundings of the bottom thereof, as shown in FIGS. 33A to 33D. The gate insulating film 132 is a film containing at least one out of an oxide film, a nitride film and a high-k film. In addition, prior to forming the gate insulating film, hydrogen atmosphere annealing or epitaxial growth may be accomplished on the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232.
[0112] A metal film 133 is formed on the surface of the gate insulating film 132, as shown in
FIGS. 34A to 34D. The metal film is preferably a film containing titanium, titanium nitride, tantalum or tantalum nitride. By using the metal film, it is possible to control depletion of the channel region and it is also possible to lower the resistance of the gate electrode. It is necessary to use a manufacturing process for later processes so as to control metal contamination by the metal gate electrode.
[0113] A polysilicon film 134 is formed on the surface of the metal film 133, as shown in
FIGS. 35A to 35D. In order to control metal contamination, it is preferable to form the polysilicon film 134 using normal-pressure CVD.
[0114] The polysilicon film 134 is etched to form polysilicon {ilms 135 and 136 remaining in sidewall shape, as shown in FIGS. 36A to 36D.
[0115] The metal film 133 is etched. The metal film on the sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 is protected by the polysilicon films 135 and 136 and thus is not etched, and becomes the metal films 137 and 138 remaining in sidewall shape, as shown in FIGS, 37A to 37D.
[61106] The gate insulating film 132 is etched. The gate insulating film on the sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 is protected by the polysilicon films 135 and 136 and thus is not etched, and becomes the gate insulating film 140 remaining in sidewall shape, as shown in FIGS. 38A to 38D. 10117] A polysilicon film 141 is formed on the surface where circuits are formed, as shown in FIGS. 39A to 39D. In order to control metal contamination, the polysilicon film 141 is preferably formed using normal-pressure CVD.
When a high-k film is used in the gate insulating films 134 and 140, this high-k film can be the source of metal contamination.
Through this polysilicon film 141, the gate insulating fitm 139 and the metal film 137 are covered by the columnar silicon layer 231, the polysilicon films 135 and 141, the insulating film 129 and the hard mask 106.
In addition, the gate insulating film 140 and the metal film 138 are covered by the columnar silicon layer 232, the polysilicon films 136 and 141, the insulating film 129 and the hard mask 107.
That is to say, the gate insulating films 139 and 140 and the metal films 137 and 138, which are all sources of contamination, are covered by the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232, the polysilicon layers 135, 136 and 141, the insulating film 129 and the hard masks 106 and 107, so it is possible to control metal contamination by metal contained in the gate insulating films 139 and 140 and the metal films 137 and 138. [n order to achieve the aforementioned objectives, it would be fine to form a structure in which the metal film is thickly formed, etching is accomplished to leave a sidewall shape and the gate insulating film is etched, following which a polysilicon film is formed and the gate insulating film and the metal film are covered by the columnar silicon layer, the polysilicon layer, the insulating film and the hard mask.
[0118] A polysilicon film 142 is formed on the surface where the circuits are formed, as shown in FIGS. 40A to 40D. In order to bury the columnar silicon 231 and 232, the polysilicon film is preferably formed using low-pressure CVD. The gate insulating film and the metal film that are the source of contamination are covered by the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232, the polysilicon layers 135, 136 and 141, the insulating film 129 and the hard masks 106 and 107, so it is possible to use low-pressure CVD.
[0119] CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) is accomplished with the oxide films 130 and 131 and polishing steppers, as shown in FIGS. 41A to 41D, and the polysilicon film 142 is planarized, as shown in FIGS. 41A to 41D. Because the polysilicon film is planarized, it is possible to control metal contamination of the CMP device.
01
[0120] The oxide films 130 and 131 are removed through etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 42A to 42D
[0121] The polysilicon film 142 is etched and the polysilicon film 142 is removed to the top edge of the region where the gate electrode and the gate insulating films 139 and 140 are to be formed, as shown in FIGS. 43A to 43D. Through this etching, the gate length of the SGT is determined.
[0122] The metal films 137 and 138 on the upper sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 are removed through etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 44A to 44D,
[0123] The gate insulating films 139 and 140 on the upper sidewalls of the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 are removed through etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 45A to 45D
[0124] An oxide film 144 is formed on the surface where the circuits are formed, as shown in FIGS. 46A to 46D. Because the gate electrode top surface is protected by this oxide film 144 from the wet treatment or dry treatment accomplished in later processes, it is possible to control fluctuations in gate length, that is to say variance in gate length, and damage to the gate insulating films 139 and 140 and the metal films 137 and 138 from the gate electrode top surface.
[0125] A nitride film 145 is formed on the surface of the oxide film 144, as shown in FIGS. 47A 10 47D.
[0126] The nitride film 145 and the oxide film 144 are etched to form the oxide films 148 and 149 and the nitride films 146 and 147 remaining in a sidewall shape, as shown in FIGS. 48A to 48D.
The sum of the film thicknesses of the oxide film 148 and the nitride film 146 remaining in sidewall shape is the film thickness of the gate electrode 235 later, and the {film thickness of the oxide film 149 and the nitride film 147 remaining in sidewall shape is the film thickness of the gate electrode 236 later, so by adjusting the film formation thicknesses and etching conditions of the oxide film 144 and the nitride film 1485, it is possible to form a gate electrode of the desired film thickness.
In addition, it is preferable for the sum of the radius of the columnar silicon layer 231 and the sum of the film thicknesses of the oxide film 148 and the nitride film 146 remaining in sidewall shape to be greater than the radius of the outer circumference of the cylinder composed by the gate insulating film 139 and the metal film 137, and for the sum of the radius of the columnar silicon layer 232 and the sum of the film thicknesses of the oxide film 149 and the nitride film 147 remaining in sidewall shape to be larger than the diameter of the outer circumference of the cylinder composed by the gate insulating film 140 and the metal film 138.
At this time, because the metal films 137 and 138 are covered by the polysilicon film after gate etching, it is possible to control metal contamination.
[0127] A resist 150 for forming a gate wire 221 is formed on the polysilicon layer 142 at least between the first silicon layer 114 and the second silicon layer 120, as shown in FIGS. 49A to 49D.
[0128] The polysilicon films 142, 141, 135 and 136 are etched to form gate electrodes 235 and 236 and the gate wire 221, as shown in FIGS. 50A to 50D.
The gate electrode 235 is composed of the metal film 137 and the polysilicon films 135 and 151, and the gate electrode 236 is composed of the metal film 138 and the polysilicon films 136 and 152.
The gate wire 221 connecting the gate electrodes 235 and 236 is composed of the polysilicon films 135, 151, 142, 152 and 136.
[0129] The insulating film 129 is etched and the surfaces of the p+ type silicon layer 119 and the n+ type silicon layer 113 are exposed, as shown in FIGS. 51A to SID.
[0130] The resist 150 is removed. Conditions on the substrate following removal are shown in FIGS. 52A to 52D.
[0131] Oxidation is accomplished to form oxide films 153, 154 and 155, as shown in FIGS. 53A to 53D. The p+ type silicon layer 159, the n+ type silicon layer 157, the gate electrodes 235 and 236 and the gate wire 221 are protected by these nitride films from etching through wet treatment or dry treatment during etching of the hard masks 106 and 107 and the nitride films 146 and 147 performed later,
[0132] The hard masks 106 and 107 and the nitride films 146 and 147 are removed by etching through a wet treatment or dry treatment. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 54A to 54D. Because the top surface of the gate electrodes is protected from the wet treatment or dry treatment by the oxide films 148 and 149, it is possible to control fluctuations in gate length, that is to say variances in gate length, and to control damage to the gate insulating films 139 and 140 and the metal films 137 and 138 from the top surface of the gate electrode. At this time, the gate insulating films 139 and 140 and metal films 137 and 138 are covered by the polysilicon 135, 136, 151 and 152, the nitride films 148 and 149, the columnar silicon layers 231 and 232 and the insulating film 129, so metal contamination of the nitride {ilm wet etching device is controlled.
[0133] The oxide films 148, 149, 153, 154 and 155 are removed by etching. Conditions on the substrate following etching are shown in FIGS. 55A to 55D.
[0134] A resist 156 for forming an n+ type silicon layer on the columnar silicon layer 232 through dopant injection is formed surrounding the columnar silicon layer 231, as shown in
FIGS. 56A to 56D. In advance of this process, a thin oxide film may be formed as a through (7) oxide film for dopant injection,
[0135] As indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 57B and 57C, arsenic, for example, is injected into the top of the columnar silicon layer 232 to form an n+ type silicon layer 157. The angle of injecting the arsenic is preferably 10 degrees to 60 degrees, and more preferably the large angle of 60 degrees, where a line orthogonal to the substrate is taken as 0 degrees.
